Blood of Ukrane

Polish prime minister, Donald Tusk, confirmed Poland's military, interior ministry and private hospitals are ready to take more Ukrainians protesters wounded in the street battles of Kiev.

"We have at our disposal a large number of defense and interior ministry hospitals," said the prime minister. "We are preparing them. Anyone seeking aid in Poland will get help."

Poland's interior ministry operates 22 hospitals around the country operating outside the constraints of the country's stressed national health service and have more flexibility when it comes to handling emergency cases from abroad.

It is roughly 300 miles from Kiev to the Polish border, but wounded Ukrainians are prepared to make the journey, because they would be arrested or worse, if they went to a Ukrainian hospital. 

The head of a Polish organization helping injured Ukrainians said, "People are not going to public hospitals in Ukraine because there have been cases of the injured being kidnapped and tortured by the government".
